planes..trains..HELICOPTER

Wow folks thanks for all sharing...even you aspire it sounds like you mean well, but Stinky is right, you dont have a clue...

Firstly NOBODY knows about my garden that i would not trust with my life. Secondly these helicopters are everywhere out here in my county. I hear them buzzing around, combing the hillsides. It was unfortunate that we are on the map now, but precautions have always been taken.

Stinky i really think it is a good idea to take all the meds off the branches when drying. Your right, any unscrupulous officer could spin those branches to fit their needs. As far as counting goes,
As far as my paperwork goes, i believe all i need is a copy of the doctor recommendations for all patients involved.
This is a little something i cut and pasted from a post i made last night. What do you all think? Chris Conrad said something along these lines to a friend of mine...

" it is legally safer to call yourselves a co-op instead of a caregiver. The reason is that to be a "caregiver" has a different definition depending upon where you are located (county by county). Also there are specifics and if you overlook one of them, or it can be proven that you did not perform a certain task, this can be used against you in the court of law.

This is how it was explained to me...far from solid facts, but sounded believable and intelligent"

Trinity, is it really safer to buy a greenhouse? I always felt like they would attract attention... and then some of them can be seen right into. what do ya'll think about Greenhouses?

let me clarify on the greenhouse, i do infact construct a PVC eyesore from the sky, so its not so much attracting attention that bothers me, its just that i am not sure of the actual benefits of a full blown greenhouse...

dont mean to pry.... but what county are you in? i live in a heavy production county and have seen no choppers. Many of the shops in santa rosa have told me that the cops only take whats over the limit and leave. no court date or taking of equipment. is growing outdoors really that big a concern. I only ask because next year will be my first full year in cali and plan on using gods light next year!


i almost freaked on the just let them in comment....but you'll handled it. but one side note. cops are not your friend and not there to serve or protect you. letting them in the house when within the limit still leaves the door open for some pist of cop to bust you for something unrelated to meds because he saw ... some gunpowder, a pipe, fire violations from the grow set up, who knows what kind of petty crap they will find or simply make up!:wtf:

If you say you are a co-op rather than a caregiver, do you think that implies that the others actually share in tasks? Is it a good idea, then, to give them a heads-up in regards to the choppers, in case they are contacted with questions concerning how much involvement they DO have at your site?

Cover your ass, then cover it again!

"Cover your ass, then cover it again"

...sunburned butts are no fun :D

seriously though i would think it makes sense to let everyone involved know everything...I'll never make decisions for others, especially ones involving their freedoms...maybe only what strains to grow:)

Well in the county i live in (foothills) the cops confiscate everything and throw your ass in jail if you are one nugget or plant over the limit.

I will be leaving this property after this outdoor season is over. Then i will seriously consider keeping everything indoor for a while. I prefer not having to wonder (as much) if the police are going to be waking me up in bed with a gun to my face.

It is a real shame because the cops are enforcing their own personal beliefs on the herb, and not necessarily the LAW. The law breaking the law...nothing new!

DA Press Release - Compassionate Use Act (CUA) of 1996

i'm assuming you've already read everything from CA NORML and SafeAccess as far as the laws go. Knowledge is power.

PREACH brother! :thumbsup:

Teacher are you Hounding me to do my reading???;)

I have read that "press release" so many times i think i may have memorized it. Certainly the rules i have committed to memory. It is very nice that they have that spelled out specifically. My only objection is that i cannot have clones inside during outdoor. Not that big a deal...

I must confess i have not read much of anything from norml or Safeaccess, even though i am a member of the later. I will take a look around, thanks for the tip...

law enforcement has made it a policy to take everything if you are over your limits. This includes any and all plants and product that is on the premises.

Behave responsibly, and they have no reason to bug you (and they have repeatedly said this).

Also do NOT HAVE ANY FIRE ARMS ON THE PREMISES, this is a felony and caries a mandatory jail time, so be smart, take the guns to you mom's house, disassemble them and store them there...


Best of luck!
